[BUG] [Desktop] No way to edit or delete saved SSH connections
Preflight Checklist

What's Wrong?
SSH connections added via the environment dropdown (+ Add SSH connection) appear in the dropdown persistently, but there is no UI to edit or delete them. Hovering over a saved SSH connection does not reveal a gear icon or any management controls, unlike the "Local" environment which shows a gear icon on hover.
What Should Happen?
Hovering over a saved SSH connection (or right-clicking) should reveal options to edit or delete it, consistent with how Local environment management works.

- No edit/delete option is available — connections can only be selected, not managed

Additional Information
No management UI is present for saved SSH connections. There is also no documented file path where these connections are stored, making manual editing impossible.
This appears to be a missing feature / UX gap rather than a crash-level bug. Users who add test/incorrect SSH connections have no way to clean them up short of possibly clearing app data.
